Discussion:
Plenary Sessions
CMN: proposal for a plenary meeting of many W3C groups in Feb. in
Boston.  Because we have so much cross-over with many of these it might
be a good idea to attend.   Lots of different options for contact.
Charles can attend.  He would like antro from other groups, short
meeting for AU alone, lots of time for informal meetings.
WL: How many days?
CMN: 3 days - could have WG meetings before or after.  Perhaps its
better not for AU to meet at CSUN.
WL: Can be there.
HS: When?
CMN: Late Feb. or early March.
HS: Microsoft supports multiple working groups meeting at the same
event.  Someone will be sent.
Mathias: Someone will probably be sent.
JT: Sounds like people think it is a good idea.

CMN:  User still needs to use part of tool properly.

more strongly.
